Who is She?<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>, … asked my wife’s 90+ year old aunt many years ago. \u00a0The image at left was recently developed. It was from an exposed roll of film (from a bulk roll) exposed in the 1930s Leica IIIa<\/a>. The film was in a Leitz brass cassette<\/a> that was likely purchased some years ago, possibly with the IIIa.<\/p>\n

As the BBC recently stated<\/a>, “Camera collector William Fagan obtained a number of film cassettes some years ago, when he bought a Leica IIIa.” Assuming the photo was taken in Europe before WW2, the lady would be over 100 years old today. Perhaps she became a mother and grandmother, then her children or grandchildren may recognize her.<\/p>\n

Visit the BBC<\/a> site for the story and more photos of the trip to Switzerland and Italy. Let us know at info@phsc.ca<\/a> if you do recognize the photo – no reward, just the satisfaction of helping solve a mystery.<\/p>\n

My thanks to two friends and PHSC members – George Dunbar and Russ Forfar. They both took the time to alert me about this story.<\/p>\n
